2 months old!

Two months old... she's "Our American Girl" like her shirt says...  

 

Olivia is our sweetie pie. She is in the 98% in height and now 75% in weight... she was 92% in weight, but she's trying to slim down like her Mommy. :)  She sleeps well at night, usually just up once. She loves sleeping on you during the day and keeps waking up lately when you lay her down. She does have her fiesty times that sometimes seem harder than having twins, but overall she is doing great.

Home sweet Home

It felt awfully strange being able to leave the hospital so easily WITH our sweet baby girl in our arms!! Helped fill that void in my heart that needed mending after having to leave the boys in the NICU previously. This was a touching and wonderful day for me... also happened to be Mother's Day :)

 The boys were SO EXCITED!!

 All the proud guys...

It sure felt like we were escaping!!

Got my Girl :)

The boys love to give her every toy and dolly she owns :)

They created a precious poem/song with Uncle Denys and Aunt Shantelle

They sing her songs ALL the time... she's pretty good at sleeping through it... so far...

Time to Update!!

Okay, so now that 6 months or so have gone by, it is way past time to update the blog!! I just don't have the kind of time I used to have on the computer when the boys were younger. I miss that time dearly, when I could still read a book or magazine for more than 1 minute.... Oh toddler world, you are adorable yet exhausting... speaking of which the boys just woke up from their naps. Bye bye

Caleb & Noah's 2nd Birthday Party!!

We had a wonderful time throwing the boys their 2nd Birthday Party! It is amazing they are already two! The theme was "Big Trucks" and the boys had a blast. We were also thrilled so many extended family members were able to come! My grandma, aunt, uncle, cousins and cousin in law were able to come.

These were the big truck cakes before getting decorated. Grandma Gay Hope and I decorated these late into the night...

Noah was not interested in eating cake at all. He went straight over and picked out a present and sat patiently until Caleb was done eating cake!

Grandma Gay Hope was able to purchase these from the company she works for, Safety Gear. I love the green and blue!

This rug from Grandpa and Grandma Arnold is sweet! The boys love playing with their cars on it.

An insane amount of new toys!!
